China and Beijing
Den Kinesiske Mur

I Kina er det ca. 1 400 000 000 innbyggere. I Beijing hvor vi er nå, er det ca. 22 millioner folk. Beijing er hovedstaden i Kina. I dag var vi på den Kinesiske mur. JEG FIKK MEDALJE! fordi jeg gikk så langt. Der var det mange trapper. Hvis du har sett meg i gymmen svettet jeg mye mer enn det! Muren er ca. 8 850 km lang. Muren ble bygd på nesten 300 år.

Day 50 to 56 Seoul in South Korea
In the middle of Seoul city center

The past few days have been quite exciting. Weve learned how to eat with chopsticks, become efficient at buying tickets at the subway and understanding how it works… Even if there is a lot of information in korean language! In the subway nearly all the people were busy on their cellphones and rarely looked up. Another thing we discovered was that the people driving motorbikes often did it in the walk and cycle paths… We got really scared sometimes as we did not notice the bikers until they were right behind us. We also have experienced to go to a water world where almost everybody wore a life-west. No Wonder! The wave in the wave pool looked more like a tsunami!!! Continue reading
Vifter og aircondition
Ikke forstyrr! Skolearbeid pågår! 
På tiden i Asia har jeg blitt veldig glad i AIRCONDITION!!! Det er DEILIG å gå inn der det er kaldt og man ikke koker. Hver dag er det kokende varmt ute og jeg går ofte å tenker på å kjøpe min egen, bærbare, elektriske vifte. Men nå over til noe annet! Jeg skal på KINO i kveld og se “Dyrenes hemmelige liv” på engelsk. Det blir engelsktimene i dag… 🙂 Forresten dere burde se filmen One Piece. Den var kjempekul – spesielt på japansk språk! 🙂 Takk og farvel, farvel, takk og farvel!
KJØTTBOLLESPISING!!!!!!!!
Nå skal jeg spise KJØTTBOLLER!! I Sør-Korea spiser man med spisepinner, Jeg har lært meg det selv om jeg tror de gjør det litt annerledes enn meg. For jeg SPIDDER kjøttbollene. Se og lær! Dette funker mye bedre.

Busan i Sør-Korea
I Busan er det veldig vanlig å kjøre moped på sykkel og gangveg. Der kjører folk litt uforsvarlig og fort. Mange biler kjører på rødt lys og grønn mann i fotgjengerfeltet. De har en fin strand og lunken sjø som er deilig og bade i. I Sør-Korea lager de telefonen Samsung de lager også bilene Hyundai og Kia. Vi har vært på et kjempefint akvarium der det var mange djevlerokker og haier. Det hjelper veldig med vifter hvis man skal kjøle seg ned i varmen ute. Når man drar ut føles det ut som om man drar inn i en badstue. Det kan bli ca.38 grader. Det er mange buddistiske templer her omkring. De bruker masse gull og buddafigurer. Absolutt alle som kommer fra Sør- Korea har brunt eller svart hår.

Day 45 to 49 Exciting Busan
Busan Cinema Center
Busan is a city with around 3.4 million people and the beach in Haeundae is South Korea’s “Fort Lauderdale”. At the moment it is some degrees too hot (around 35 degrees celsius) and has a busy night life. Haeundae beach is a white sandy one and is 2 km long and is well suited for relaxing and sunbathing. If you want to take a swim the sea is pleasantly warm. The city has a beautiful skyline and most buildings are quite tall making space for the city’s inhabitants. Other sites we’ve visited are Sea Life Busan Aquarium, Busan Lotte Shopping Mall, Busan Cinema Center and Beomeosa temple. All four sites were great fun.
Day 42 to 44 Hiroshima
The whole family in front of The A-bomb Dome in Hiroshima

We just had to see and experience Hiroshima before leaving Japan. The city has over 1,2 million inhabitants.The Peace Memorial Museum is a must. Another great site is The Hiroshima Palace. We visited both sites and will go to visit The Hiroshima Contemporary Art Museum before leaving for Busan in South Korea in two days. Continue reading
Day 38 to 41 Magical Kyoto
The golden temple in Kyoto

I have to admit I thought Kyoto would be a little less exciting than Tokyo… I was wrooooong! In this city one can explore plenty of historical, cultural and world heritage sites like gardens, forests, temples, lakes and shrines.The shopping district is great fun to explore as well. The pictures will tell it all… I just looooove Kyoto!!! Continue reading
Day 33 to 37 Tokyo
Tokyo

What a city! We are out of words. How is it possible to fit nearly 14 million people in this city and still leave it this clean?! Beats me! Whoever planned the city’s infrastructure must have been a genius to be able to make this work in such a great manner. On saturday night we went out walking, and the city was so calm and quiet. The next few days we went out to see the electric center, Sun City, the Zoo, the Imperial Palace gardens, and Ginza. Continue reading
